Position sensing

[bbuster90]

I want to do my own acoustic to electric drum conversion and would like to know what i need for position sensing?
Will any piezo mounted in the center work?

And what is the benefit (or not) from 3 edge mounts with or without center piezo?

All the suggestions in the following thread about hotspot suppression apply equally for positional sensing..

Thank you for your quick reply, so if i am correct, all piezo's "could" work (also the amazon's for example) but how good it works depends on the items listed in the topic?

And 3 edge mounted piezo's and 1 center piezo can also work? Does this have benefits or is it not worth the troubles?
I am new to this but don't want to build something that could be simply improved by adding a few more things for example



The ED10 should be in stock in May again, is this still accurate?

[Rob]

Positional sensing on 3 side trigger pads is experimental at this point. I would stick with a single center mounted sensor.

It's looking like late May to early June.

Thank you, going for the single center mount than.

Ah, wished it was available sooner but thank you for the update

Is it just this chip that you need to find for completing the modules (what you said in another post): MK66FX1M0VLQ18


I see here they should have 240 in stock
